Do I need a Paypal buisness account in order to accept Twitch donations? I doubt I will recieve much and I don't see it as a buisness, more like fun free time. Since this is hardly a buisness it just feels wrong to have to get a change in accounts. From Sweden

It can be a personal account if you’re just slapping on a email address, donation link or PayPal.me link.
Read this article about dealing with chargebacks/disputes when accepting twitch donations with PayPal before you get started.
Kudos & Solved are greatly appreciated. 🙂

However I do feel like I need an actual company when setting up the buisness account and I dont have one nor would be in any company register? Is this even allowed?
